To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HENRY BRUcKnn, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newark, in the county of Essex and State 5 of New'Jez'sey, havevinvented new and useful Improvements inCombination Baking Pans, of which the following is a specifica- The objects of the invention are to provide a ing pan comprising a plurality of parts which are adapted to cooperate with each a baking pan comprising a pan rim and a removable bottom therefor which when arranged in said rim forms therewith a pan to bake the body of a filler cake, said bottom being'also adapted to serve individualv 1y asa pan for baking ie and the like; to thus provide a pan rim aving an inwardly projecting annularflange at one end, and a pie baking pan having an annular flange at .hk

its edge adaptedftvhen the pie pan is inverted to rest upon said flange of the pan rim and form aremovable bottom therefor to adapt the pan rim for baking the body of afiller cake; said pie pan when removed from said pan rim being adapted tofbake the filler for the fillercake; and to obtain other results and advantages as may be brought out by the following description.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, in which like numerals of refei'ence indicate 1 the same parts throughout the several views. I 'Figure 1 isa perspective view of the rim *ot the combinationbaking -pan embodying my invention;

- -.Figure 2 is a'perspective view of one of.

'- f In the embodiment of my invention shown on the drawings, the reference character A designates the rim-of the pan which. isformed of any suitable materiahpreferably aluminum, the saidirim. being. shown in the present ins'tance as substantially cylindrical "being returned to form a reen orcing head 1 cake.

. 3 and an annular flange 4 at the edge there- 0f,-said an being of a diameter to freely fit within t ,e pan mm A. When the pan B is inverted and slipped. into the rim A, the flange 4 of the pan B rests upon the flange 2 ofthe'rim so that the pan- B forms a memo"- able bottom for the rim, and the side walls and bottombf the pan B are spaced from the sides of the rim A and project upwardly into the rim as clearly shown in Figure 3.. The pan B thus arranged in the rim A produces a baking pan particularly baking the body ofa filler cake, the annular channel between therim and the side walls of the an B serving to form the rim on the BVhen the pan B is removed from the rim and turned right side up, it may be utilized for baking'the filler for the depression in the to of the body of the filler cake, and can also be used for baking pies or the e. a 7 While I have shown this embodiment of -my invention, it will be understood that it is only for the purpose of illustrating the principles thereof, and that modifications and changes can. be made in the detail construction'of the parts of the pan without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, I do not desire to be understood as limiting myself except as required by the following claim when conflange of the rim with its side walls projecting u wardly into said rim in spaced relation" ereto, said rim and. pan.coinbined as set forth forming "a baking dish for the cake body with a bottom to seat onthe oven floor and the an forming a recess in said cake body a the pan'whenremoved from the adapted for a rim forming a baking dish'for a filler for said recess with a bottom to seat on the oven pfioor.v 7 annular flange 2..
